Vishay Linear Displacement Sensor

Micro-Measurements Linear Displacement Sensors use a fully active 350-ohm strain-gage bridge to sense spindle displacement, giving infinite resolution and excellent linearity. They are compatible with all standard strain-gage instrumentation with bridge excitation from 2 to 10 volts. With a selection of models having full -scale ranges from 1/4 in [5 mm] to 4 in [100 mm], Linear Displacement Sensors feature a unique design that produces maximum operating forces of less than 1 lb [4.4 N]. Available with specially designed mounting fixtures, these versatile sensors are ideally suited for use in research, manufacturing and process control applications.
